Department of Agriculture January 21, 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, is revising the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests' Land Management Plan (Forest Plan). The Forest Service has prepared a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for its revised Forest Plan, and a draft Record of Decision (ROD). This notice is to inform the public that the National Forests in North Carolina is initiating a 60-day period where individuals or entities with specific concerns about the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests' revised Forest Plan and the associated FEIS may file objections for Forest Service review prior to the approval of the revised Forest Plan. This is also an opportunity to object to the Regional Forester's list of species of conservation concern for the Nantahala and Pisgah National Forests.
